2. Read the passage and the answer the questions:
The Inuit from northern Canada build igloos out of hard blocks of ice. Ice is a good
insulating material and the igloos are warm and comfortable. The nomadic Bedouin make
tents from animal skins and can move easily from place to place as they look for food for
their animals. People adapt their homes to suit their lifestyles and the conditions where
they live. Birds do this, too.

The golden eagle spends most of its life in the air, flying high above the ground looking
for food. Unlike most birds, it does not build a new nest every year but returns to the old
one and adds more sticks to it. Eagle nests are found high up on cliffs and the largest ones
can be 1.8 metres across and 1.5 metres high. By contrast, the tiny hummingbird builds a
nest less than 3 centimeters long. It uses grass and spiders' webs to construct it.
Woodpeckers build their nests in holes in trees, and weaver birds build beautiful nests
which hang from a single thread. In Holland, storks sometimes build nests on the roofs of
houses and people put wheels on their roofs to prevent the nests falling off. The lazy
cuckoo does not build a nest at all. It lays its eggs in other birds' nests and leaves them to
raise its young.
